Mister Stabby

He only exists during the Frost Legion, and that event never starts on its own. Somebody has to set it off with a Snow Globe, which comes out of presents during the Christmas season, so this is an enemy you have chosen to fight. He arrives in the mix with the rest of the snowmen once the wave is rolling.

He runs at you, then plants his feet for a slow, obvious knife thrust. The windup is not the problem. Everything between the windups is, because he dashes and ricochets off the terrain at speed and rarely holds still long enough for a short arc to land. A spear covers the space he is about to occupy without asking you to track him, and anything ranged beats timing a sword against a bouncing target. Flat ground with a wall at your back takes most of the ricochet out of him.

• Every other member of the Frost Legion has something on its head. He is the bare one.
• He is holding the knife by the blade.
• The name points at Mr. Stabby, a Flash cartoon by Jonti Picking.
